I Am The Greatest: Muhammad Ali at The O2
I Am The Greatest: Muhammad Ali at The O2
Bringing together over one hundred extraordinary artefacts, I Am The Greatest: Muhammad Ali is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get lost in the life of a sporting legend.
Photographs, unseen footage and rare personal items paint a compelling portrait of the incomparable Mohammad Ali. This fascinating exhibit covers Ali’s refusal to fight in the Vietnam War, his conversion to Islam and his interactions with other important figures, such as Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Junior, Leonid Brezhnev and Saddam Hussein.
Named BBC Sports Personality of the Century, Athlete of the Century by Sports Illustrated magazine and Fighter of the Year by Ring Magazine more times than any other boxer, Ali is not only one of the greatest sporting heroes the world has ever seen but is also a tireless humanitarian, receiving the W.E.B. Dubois Medal from Harvard University, the Presidential Citizens Medal and the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his charity work and causes. So adored and admired is Ali that British boxer David Haye has now started a campaign for Britain to award Ali an honorary knighthood.
I Am The Greatest: Muhammad Ali is an intimate and powerful exhibition that gets to the heart of Ali’s incredible life and achievements as well as his inspiring message of peace and understanding. At London’s O2 Arena until the end of August, book your tickets to I Am The Greatest: Muhammad Ali today.

Amazing. Loved that you could follow various moments throughout Muhammad Ali's legacy using the hand held device which told a different story behind each number on the keypad. Being able to see his gloves, boots and robes etc. whether replica or real was pretty emotional. The whole exhibition was just the right size too, which made it more intimate. Haven't stopped talking about it since my visit! Would recommend that everyone goes.

Really well set out taking through Clay's early years his development as an amateur, his anti Vietnam stance, boxing ban through to fights with Cooper, Foreman and Frasier. Plenty of memorabilia and booking footage, supported by phones with dialogue, if required. Also now a commemorative book to sign remembering Ali.

Good insightful exhibition. Poor sound quality, could have had more of a punch to it. Some thing missing.

I certainly learnt some things I didn't know about him and was reminded of many things I had forgotten. It did leave me feeling close to some of his experience. Could have done so much more with the last experience - just lacked a bit of imagination I think. Sound quality poor at times.
